OnePlus 13R | Smarter with OnePlus AI | Lifetime Display Warranty (12GB RAM, 256GB Storage Astral Trail)

Great performance phone only camera is not upto mark.

Great phone. Phone charging could use a little boost. Charger is nerfed to 80 watts. But for earlier versions they gave 100 watt chager

Decent mid-range phone that will get the job done, but nothing special to write about. Build quality is just Ok, with an aluminium back panel that feels like plastic, reducing it's appeal. Feels lighter in the hand as compared to the Nothing Phone 3A Pro, that comes with premium build quality with a metal and glass body. Camera is good, not exceptional. No performance or heating issues for medium usage (social media, YouTube, WhatsApp). Battery easily lasts for a day and a half. Go for it if you are a OnePlus fan, else I will recommend the Nothing Phone 3A Pro over this model any day.

This phone is literally the smoothest phone I have used till now. It is ultra smooth, opens apps instantly, without delay. I was not expecting much, coming from a SD870-powered device, but the way this phone surprised me is amazing. I did experience some stutters in the launcher initially, but there were updates available, as soon as I updated, it was fixed. The battery backup have been quite great too. The phone size is pretty small due to amazingly thin bezels. It makes the phone size much smaller than my previous phone with smaller screen size. The build quality also feels very premium. It feels just great in hand. The other stuffs like speakers, microphones, display, fingerprint sensor, etc. are perfectly great as well. Camera, however, isn't as good. Yes, you'll see people coming out on road with wooden fire torch in their hands saying the camera is great. Well, it some cases, it is, but in the other, it is not. Honestly, even mid range phones these days are able to take excellent shots, however, how often and how easy it is to take those shots varies. It is much easier to take a great shot with a super expensive phone compared to a mid-range phone. That thing is where 13R lacks. You can take some of the most marvellous photos with its camera, however, they are not very consistent. Even varies from telephoto to Ultra wide. The HDR goes haywire in some shots, while in some, it is like taken from an ultra-expensive DSLR. Video recording is average. And honestly, it is average on most Android phones except Samsung flagships. I would recommend S24FE in this range if you're into video recording. It is supposedly also better in camera, though, I prefer 13R's camera over S24FE. Just video recording is far better on S24FE, especially in low light. Video recording is pretty bad if you compare it to flagships, but then again, its elder brother, OnePlus 13, is also poor in it, so can't expect much from the younger one, can we? Overall, I already expected the camera to be bad, but it turned out to be pretty good. I would not call the camera bad, but it is not great either. The main thing is, for day-to-day usage, this is an excellent smartphone. The smoothest I have ever used. You might even find iPhones not-so smooth when you compare 13R or the regular 13 with them. I hated when Oxygen OS was discontinued and we started getting the skinned-up (it is not even skinned up anymore) ColorOS, but now I am glad that Oppo and OnePlus have done a great job in optimizing ColorOS. Not sure if the whole ColorOS is this smooth, or it is just OnePlus team's optimization, but it is well done. Considering what I have seen in the reviews, I am extremely excited for the OxygenOS 16 update. Good job OnePlus, but please do better job on the cameras.

Unpacking and set up was a breeze. Dual sim tray is very intuitive and setting up the sim cards were very simple. Rest of the wizard driven set up gets you up and running quickly.The phone also comes with a back cover. Snapdragon gen 3 runs super fast. The cost of this phone with the available configuration is very good value for money

Writing this review after using this device 1.5 months, absolute monster in performance, fluidity and battery. Though some say battery is draining after updates, I didn't notice anything like that. Snapdragon 8 gen 3is very powerful, and games are cake for this processor. Pros: 1. Impressive performance 2. Display to body ratio very high, gives a very premium look with the flat display 3. Snapdragon 8 gen 3 is OP, with adaptive frame booster, game runs at constant 120fps even with HDR settings. 4. Battery easily last 2 days even with heavy usage, if used less it lasts 3 days. 5. Camera is good, don't know why oneplus was known for bad camera, yeah it slightly over processed the photos, but it's still pleasing to eyes, if you don't want that you can turn on natural mode, and reduces the saturation to make it look natural. 6. 120hz display of this feels a lot smoother than other phones with 120hz like samsung s24, iphone 14 pro etc. oneplus 13 is even more smoother than this phone. 7. Display is awesome, colors, hdr, pwm dimming ... Just perfect 8. Oxygen OS 15(color OS15) is super optimized, the phones flies with regular usage, thanks to new parallel processing technology. AI features are also very good. 9. Zero heating issues, even gaming cannot do anything more than just warming up the phone. Cons: 1. Charging speed could have been better, the last 11r and 12r charges faster with 100w charger, but this one supports only 80w, take 1 hr to fully charge 2. Telephoto lens has different color calibration compared to main lens, though it's not reflected while recording videos. 3. Ultra wide lens is almost useless, captures very less details due to low mega pixels count. 4. Could have some difference compared to color OS or realme UI. 5. Metal frames gets hot while charging, which is good as it dissipates heat better than plastic. 6. Oneplus has set the phone to limit performance when phone crosses 42° C, hence you don't get better scores in antutu, however if you do something to keep the phone below 38° C it gives impressive scores on antutu, when I tested, I got a 19.5 million score with high performance mode and phone touching 41 °C, however some youtubers show the phone scoring 21.5 million which is possible if phone has something to remove its heat. Overall, you can't find better refined phone in the whole 30k to 50k range. Just go for this phone. You don't have to worry about green line issues cause oneplus this time started using BOE X2 premium display which has better quality than samsung display which was the reason for green line issues. Also oneplus is the only brand to give life time warranty for green line issues. JUST GO FOR THIS PHONE

Onestar less is only for the design aspects.. that too mainly for ip65.. For the price.. no display could come nearby even samsung became a heavy competition.. Camera is fine and good.. if you know to use.. you can do magic... Just some tweeks needed to get the full output... Smoothness and performance is solid 5 without any doubt.. SOT is good with 9hours min. ( Heavy user ) Charging is little slow.. for charging 6000mah.. So, if you want a smoothest, phone for the next 5 years here you go.. Still some improments needed.. but overall you can get a better performing phone with bigger display. 👍

Battery backup not good as they mentioned 6000mah it's like equal to 5000mah

The phone is absolutely beautiful and comes with a case,charger and an installed screen protector

Hexon electronics selling one plus 13R having a problem in software update. After you get the phone, you may not able to update software and you will problem with Apps. Camera will crash very frequently. Better avoid buying one plus as they say international mobile comes without warranty.

very cheap quality, not fit to the phone

Battery issues camera issues and software update issues I purchased through hexon electronics but they are not responding try to reach OnePlus support but no of use if u want OnePlus devices don't buy online go on official store
